How often should I clean ducts?« Back to Previous Page

Hey there,

Cleaning your ducts is definitely something that can improve the indoor air quality and efficiency of your air conditioning system. In the UAE, particularly in Dubai, our climate makes regular cleaning very important due to the frequent dust storms and sand particles.

In terms of how often you should be cleaning your ducts, it's recommended every 3-5 years for most residential homes. However, if you notice an increase in allergens or dust on vents like yours, it may indicate that a more frequent clean is necessary. In Dubai, where we experience those pesky sandstorms and high temperatures, the frequency might even need to be adjusted.

If your AC seems less efficient or if you're noticing an increase in dust throughout the house after a storm, it’s wise to have a professional inspection done. At Saniservice, we recommend that you call us at 800-MOLDS (800-66537) or email us at hello@saniservice.com so we can give your system a thorough check and cleaning if needed.

Regular maintenance not only improves the air quality but also extends the life of your HVAC system. Poor airflow due to dirt and dust can strain the motor, leading to unnecessary wear and tear. Plus, with the high humidity in Dubai during some months, moisture build-up in ducts can lead to mold growth which is a serious concern.

To prevent such issues, consider setting up an annual maintenance plan for your HVAC system including duct cleaning. This way you can keep your home’s air clean and your AC running efficiently all year round.

Remember, it's not just about the frequency but also ensuring that any cleaning or inspection done is by professionals who know what they're doing to avoid damaging your system.

Hope this helps!
Best,
